After Everything: An MM Ex-Friends to Lovers Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798259370142)

Seven years ago, Jonah Hale shattered Eliot's world with one cruel sentence.

Now he's back, working behind the same café counter.

Eliot Hayes has spent the last seven years burying the memory of his childhood best friend. The kiss that ruined everything. The public outing that turned him radioactive at school. The sudden disappearance that left him broken and alone.

Then Jonah walks through the door asking for a job.

Older. Harder. Carrying bruises no one else can see.

Jonah is desperate to prove he's changed. Eliot just wants to survive the shift without remembering how safe he once around Jonah. But forced proximity has a way of cracking even the thickest walls-especially when late-night confessions and shared trauma start turning old pain into something dangerously tender.

In a slow-burn MM ex-friends-to-lovers romance packed with raw emotion, second chances, and the kind of love that only survives after everything, two broken men must decide if the boy who once destroyed them can be the man who finally makes them whole.

Perfect for fans of emotional, angst-filled MM romance with heavy themes and a hard-earned HEA.
